Very in-depth for the age group needed. I like the idea of glossary terms at the back if they don't understand. Would recommend.

I ordered a few books for my children. I really liked the packs. Everything in one pack for each subject. Resources are up to date. I highly recommend Exam Ninja.

About the 11+ English Stretch Tests (Ages 8-9)

Here are our top reasons to buy the 11+ English Stretch Tests (Ages 8-9):

  • Harder 11+ English practice than the standard Bond papers, written for Year 4 (ages 8-9)
  • Covers reading comprehension, spelling, punctuation and grammar, vocabulary and writing
  • Matched to the question types used in grammar and independent school entrance exams
  • Fully explained answers in a pull-out section
  • Written by Sarah Lindsay for Bond

Your Year 4 child is aiming at the 11+ and finds the standard papers straightforward, so these are the harder English tests to move on to.

The 11+ for a grammar or independent school rewards accuracy under pressure. These 11+ English stretch tests sit above the standard Bond papers, so the questions ask for more thought. Year 4 is early, and that is the point. There is time to build the reading and the writing before the exam year.

Each test in this printed book opens with a reading passage and questions on it, then moves through spelling, punctuation and grammar, vocabulary and writing. Your child sits one test at a time. The answers lift out as a pull-out section, so you can mark together at the end.

Every answer explains the reasoning, not just the right word, so you can see why a mark went. Talk it through, and the same slip is less likely next time. A book of tests in the formats the real 11+ papers use, with explained answers, gives your child steadier ground than an odd paper here and there.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this suitable for my child?

The 11+ English Stretch Tests (Ages 8-9) is perfectly suited for children in Year 4 who are preparing to take the GL Assessment 11+ exams, which are typically sat in the September - October period of Year 6.

This resource is also ideal for children preparing for other 11+ test providers, including FSCE, CSSE, the Sutton Selective Eligibility Test (SET), as well as 11+ exams authored by individual grammar schools themselves.

While specifically designed for children preparing for the GL 11+ tests, the 11+ English Stretch Tests (Ages 8-9) also provides excellent preparation for independent school entrance exams, typically held in the January - February period of Year 6.
